So this mental midget is one of those people who say incorrectly, “I COULD care less”, instead of “I could’NT care less...”

I'd let him slide on that. For some reason, "I could care less" has become the norm for most people, even though it seems to mean the opposite of what it says. Because so many people use the phrase that way, I can't fault D.L. for doing the same. I do think he is an idiot and racist, but I do not base my opinion on his idiomatic error.

You’re probably right to “let it slide”.

Sadly, dumbing down the population is becoming so incredibly successful because nobody cares any more about what’s proper and correct.
